Traditional and nontraditional health practices will be explored at a March 27 Health and Wellness Expo at First Afrikan Presbyterian Church in Lithonia.

The 10 a.m.-to-3 p.m. event is sponsored by the church’s NIA Women and Eropo Men ministries.

Organizer Danielle King said the communitywide expo will include screenings for diabetes and high blood pressure, body mass index, and a workout demonstration by fitness trainer Carla Fields.

There also will also be bio-cleansing, foot detox and colonics; an Afro-centric focus on skin care and natural hair care; and a yoga workout session. Raw food samples also will be offered. A massage therapist will provide healing touch therapy with crystals and stones.

Participants are asked to wear comfortable clothing and to bring two cans of food to use as weights. The canned goods later will be donated to the church’s food ministry.

The church is at 5197 Salem Road. For more information, call 770-981-2601.
